Great location, good place to live

Really like the management at this apartment. They've been very responsive though we didn't have a lot of occasions to call. Safe environment. Packages always safe.

Heat always seems to be on but isn't that the case in all of NYC??

The perfect small apartment
Former Tenant
Pros:
I lived here for 3 years. The location could not be better, and the apartments have character. The building is very well maintained, and management is quick to respond to requests. They did not increase my rent too much when I went to renew each year.
Cons:
Generally, all of the apartments are just SO small. I lived in 2 units during my time in the building. The floors are crooked and there are many “quirks” that come with the fact that it’s old and unrenovated. Sometimes the building maintenance people are not very thorough.
Advice to owner:
Do some renovations to the bathroom and kitchen but keep the charm

Ok apartment building
Former Tenant
Pros:
The location is great. The building management is usually timely with maintenance requests and try to keep the communal lobby area clean.
Cons:
The building is noisy, you hear everything going on in the building inside your apartment. My entire time living here i've had to deal with roaches and mice. Mold grows easily in the bathroom since there is no overhead ventilation and the windows are glued shut thanks to the landlord special. Management can be rude to work with.
Advice to owner:
Fix the pest issue.

Good Building
Former Tenant
Pros:
It’s safe and in a good neighborhood.
The neighbors are nice.
The apartment is nice.
Cons:
The key fob entry breaks often.
The rent is really high for the space I have.

Lower rent and think about having a back up key entry into the building for when the fob breaks.
